Function
The central component of microtubule nucleation complex is the evolutio rily highly conserved 纬-tubulin (TUBG1)(11005013) that forms together with TUBGCP2 and TUBGCP3 the 纬-tubulin small complex (纬-TuSC)(9566967). Although higher levels of LGALS3BP expression lead to the dispersion of PCM, depletion results in the generation of multiple centriolar structures. The PCM hypertrophy- and accumulation of centriolar structure-phenotypes correlate directly with centrosome morphology aberrations in cancer cells and patient tissues with deregulated levels of LGALS3BP(23443559).
